Chic winter hats

Whether the weather outside is frightful… or you’re just a having a bad hair day, now is the perfect time of year to have a little fun with fashion in the form of a hat! Of course you may automatically think of that big old ski cap you wore as a kid, but with so many stylish toppers this season, why not step out of your comfort zone? Here are some of my favorite hat options for cold weather!

The beanie

To me, this slouchy beanie screams “cool girl.” Lightweight enough to rock indoors, but warm enough to give you some extra warmth, this is an easy weekend go-to.

Wide-brimmed

I can just picture Elle Macpherson wearing this wide-brimmed fedora while at the Sundance Film Festival! It would also work beautifully to cover up your bedhead when you get up in the wee hours of the morning for holiday shopping!

Turban

If you are looking to make a chic statement, a turban is the way to go. Whether your inspiration comes from the '20s or Rachel Zoe, you will “shut it down” in this polished look.

Knit headband

Not ready to commit to a hat? Try one of these cool knit headbands! They are ultra-flattering and they don’t completely ruin your blowout!
